I have worked as a babysitter since I was in high school and during my holiday breaks from medical school when I’m back in town. I have multiple years of experience and babysat kids all different ages. As well, in the past I was a swim instructor for kids. I enjoy working with kids, I am patient and manage to have good contact with them. Right now I'm studying medical school in Europe, I’m on my 4th year out of 6 years. Through this I know CPR and first aid as well.

Karolina is trustworthy, always on time, and always responded promptly to messages. We would definitely love to have her babysit for us again in the future!

Ready to experience the best babysitter that your kids will be disappointed you came home? Hello, I am interested in becoming a babysitter for you! My name is Tenia. I have been working with children and adolescents my entire life, and have been working on Sittercity for a few years now, and have been working with the same families for 2-3 years as well. Working with children is my passion, whether it is therapeutic or fun! I don’t have any children of my own so looking over other families' children fills my baby/kid fever! I treat all children as if they were my own and I love watching them grow each day! You will not have to worry about leaving your children in my care! I strive to make sure both you as the parent and your children are comfortable so you can have peace while you are away from your kiddos! I am currently CPR-certified and will provide documentation if needed. I can drive children to activities, watch children at your home, watch children at my home, help with homework, prepare meals, and teach healthy skills. I have been babysitting for many years and these rates are based on my experience and quality of work! However, I am open to discussing prices! I am easygoing and welcome communication of any sorts! I believe all parents should be able to have access to babysitting care. I look forward to working with you and your kiddos! If you are happy with my services, please leave a review! :) If you are not happy, let’s talk! I am very open to feedback and criticism! I have a family that you can contact as a reference if needed! :)

We were looking for someone to pick up our little one from daycare and watch him until one of us got home a few times a month. Tenia was great! she was on time for every pick up, made sure he got home safe, made sure he was comfortable when he got home, and checked in with us at each step to ensure we were aware of where she was. Highly recommend and would be connecting with her again for future date nights/pickups as well!

Hi! I’m an experienced, reliable babysitter with 10+ years of professional nanny experience and 2 years as a German Au Pair living with an American family. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged, and I’m comfortable managing multiple kids at once. I can help with everything from diaper changes and bedtime routines to homework, meal prep, and fun activities. I’m calm, organized, and happy to tidy up so you can come home to a smooth, settled house. As a parent myself, I understand how important trust is. My goal is simple: happy kids and relaxed parents

I adore Mona. Our family has known her for about 5 years now. Our daughters are best friends (from ages 5 to 9 currently), and I am so glad for that. We trust Mona - she’s smart, caring, generous, thoughtful and intentional. She believes in teaching and allowing kids age appropriate independence. She recognizes and meets kids where they are but also has a lot of fun. Mona is reliable, responsible and a great communicator - she drives my kids to school and takes them on fun adventures. She is artistic, loves animals, enjoys the outdoors, loves to garden and cook, and is very involved and active in her daughter’s school. Finally, I witness and observe how Mona is raising her own daughter. Not only am I incredibly grateful that my kids get the benefit of Mona’s huge heart and genuine care, but I too have grown as a parent from knowing her.

Hi there! I’m an experienced nanny with a genuine passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I’m a kid at heart, so I bring warmth, enthusiasm, creativity, and plenty of energy into every day while creating a safe and nurturing environment. My journey working with children began in 2016 as a special needs swim coach, where I developed the patience, empathy, and adaptability that continue to guide my approach to caring for children today. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for infants, twins, toddlers, preschool-aged, and elementary-aged children, including nanny share settings and families with multiple young children. I love planning engaging activities that support developmental milestones through reading, outdoor adventures, sensory play, music, and hands-on learning. I’m also proactive, dependable, and enjoy helping families by staying organized and pitching in wherever I can. I’m looking for a family where communication, kindness, and teamwork are valued. My goal is to become a trusted teammate to parents while providing children with a loving, enriching environment where they can feel confident, curious, and deeply cared for.

Katie C.
Micaela was our nanny for about a year and a half, caring for our three young boys, ages 5, 3, and 2. She initially joined our family as a temporary nanny while we were transitioning between childcare arrangements, but we quickly grew to love her so much that we brought her on full time. She is truly one of the kindest, most hardworking, respectful, and genuinely caring people I have ever met. The only reason we stopped using her was because I made the decision to stay home full time with our children. Even now, we continue to stay in touch with her because she became such an important part of our family. Professionally, Micaela was exceptional. She was consistently reliable and never once arrived late. Every day, she showed up with enthusiasm, patience, and genuine joy for caring for our energetic boys. She handled challenging situations with a calm and steady presence, always bringing warmth and positivity into our home. I never once questioned her ability to manage whatever the day brought, and she was always flexible and accommodating whenever unexpected work situations came up for us. We love Micaela dearly and truly cannot recommend her highly enough. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.
